I'm building a platform for two parties - experts and customers. I hope this web app has the following functionalities:
- User login and account management (edit, delete)
- Application process (fill in forms, upload docs, etc.) to become an "expert" account
- Profile feed: shows expert profiles
- Scheduling and canceling: experts can choose to select from a schedule to show availability, and customers can schedule time with experts
- Payment
Additionally, these would be nice-to-haves:
- Video call integration
- Code export
- Hosting service
Would appreciate any recommendation on the best tool for these requirements, especially if you've built something similar!
you can build must-haves 1-5 on Wappler - low code, visual web app development tool.
for nice-to-haves:
1 - you can integrate agora.io APIs (an example, there could be other such providers as well)
2 - yup, you own and control the full code and the data, both.
3 - you can host on AWS/Docker/Heroku directly from within Wappler. Docker integration makes it easy to develop and use any other third party hosting provider of your choice to deploy docker containers.
Wappler does have a learning curve - but if you want to build a scalable, fully self owned and controlled platform, it's your best bet!
@wellwhale, I am definitively with @tbotnar on this one. Bubble appears to be the most complex and can cover multiple use cases; As far as I know, it integrates 1, 2, 3, 5 from your mandatory list and 1 and 3 from the nice2have and it has a well defined community where you can find self-explanatory tutorials. What you could also do, is go and use a no-code agency.
I would love to connect, I want to learn more about your project.
Good luck!

I'd say Glide is the best tool for this. Note you'd have your must haves, but not your nice to haves (1 & 2).
Check out the following (boring) videos, some have functionalities that you're looking for:
Here are some videos of me showing some apps we've built:
Internal operations apps: https://media.lowcode.agency/OAuJ77d1
Healthcare apps: https://media.lowcode.agency/eDuP00Lw
Directory style apps: https://media.lowcode.agency/NQu15p1E
Wow, Glide seems to work really well, I had no idea this existed, very interesting...
I'd say bubble would be your go-to here, as a marketplace is pretty complex for other no-code platforms.
